CNBC’s poll showed 0% votes for Microcaps! Not one expert believes this segment to do well. Practically, anything below about INR 10k crs in mcap now behaves like a microcap in institutional portfolios not because of business quality, but because of how mfs are structured and deployment criterias. Main board stocks between INR 1k –10k Cr are the least institutionally owned part of the market nearly 950 companies sitting in a structural blind spot Most Small Cap mfs today are no longer truly smallcap. Their portfolios now look more like mid and even large caps. As the category has grown, big money simply can’t operate in genuinely small companies leaving the INR 1K to 10KCr universe largely untouched by institutional flows. It is a very large opportunity set (950 cos) and definitely under owned. And these stocks trade thinly, even a small shift in institutional allocation can drive meaningful price discovery and sharp re-rating. More importantly, this is also where earnings growth is often the strongest. The poll itself is a mispricing signal. It highlights low expectations out of this segment. So my sense is, given the 18 month of time and price correction + under ownership, this segment is poised to do very well over 2-3 year period.

Paying our respects to Mr. Siddharth Bhaiya. An ace investor with a rich legacy, his clarity, conviction, and wisdom give us much to learn both in investing and in life.

Rearview | Frontview @XylemInvestment Reflecting on 2025, it was all about risk management and looking back, we did quite well on that front. Very early last year, our RMS stopped us out of several ideas, raising nearly 75% cash in our PMS. We consciously exited themes that had already delivered strong returns over the last two to three years. It wasn’t an easy call then, but it turned out to be the right one. Our big miss was also clear. We did not take a tactical bet on metals. In hindsight, it was a sitter trade and we could have deployed our cash far more effectively. New learnings every year! Looking forward, markets once again feel fertile for the next phase of opportunity. Over the last few months, we have slowly begun reallocating capital, focusing only on areas where we have deep, long-term conviction. Some of our high-conviction themes 1) Fintech UPI, digital payments and digital lending are driving a structural shift in financial services. Payments are growing close to 50% YoY, while digital lending is scaling rapidly. We believe fintech offers a far superior way to play the future of financial services versus traditional BFSI. 2) Biotech The real next frontier in pharma lies in biotech and novel medicines. CDMOs are clearly a crowded trade today. These deep tech companies have very high entry barriers, with only a handful of listed players. Many also have product specific, potentially game changing triggers in the near term. 3) Chemicals Chinese anti-involution is emerging as a powerful long-term tailwind. New capacity additions are slowing, older capacities will begin shutting down post 2028, and inventory restocking in agrochemicals and select global chemical leaders looks particularly attractive 4) Retail We remain very bullish on D2C and luxury. Consumption patterns have structurally changed, and several high quality retailers are available at valuations that don’t yet reflect this shift with operating cash flows telling a far better story than reported profits (thanks to lease adjustments). Ending the year with more clarity and deeper conviction. Ready for the next cycle. Let’s go!!

Michael Burry struck back in 2001. He struck again in 2008. And once more in 2021. Now, The Big Short returns, this time targeting the AI frenzy. Palantir. Nvidia. Who will prevail this round- the AI-fueled boom or Burry’s bearish conviction?

He didn’t just predict the 1929 crash, he profited from it. Jesse Livermore, the man who shorted history, made $100 million while the world lost everything. A legend An amazing trader A name less talked of in market’s hall of fame.

Decades of quiet conviction, Steady principles, Unmatched clarity. Warren Buffett steps back, but the philosophy he lived continues forward. Here’s to the legacy that reshaped how the world understands value📈 #InvestingLessons #FinancialWisdom #WealthCreation
